Each night at the pub we gather,
friends in poetry and prose.
We share our innermost feelings;
with words and rhyme, we bear our souls.

Always a kind word is offered
and often a laugh or two.
Comfort and support are provided
whenever a patron is blue.

I tap my glass with a spoon's edge,
chiming an "attention all" sound.
As the pub quiets, I voice my thanks
for allowing me to hang around.

A round of drinks for the house, I shout,
and happily, the tab is on me.
I raise my glass in a toast
to each of you, my Corner Pub family.

Janet Marie-you were my inspiration for this with your "Hangin at the Corner Pub" piece.

Sasikat,

I'll drink to that. Make mine a double--shaken, not stirred.    

I'm sure Janet Marie will agree;
We owe you one for that lovely sante'.

~Gene

Thanks for your kindness Gene & Poet dV, here and with the other replies you have made to me.  I really do feel like we are family here and feel fortunate to be a part of it.

SAS  
thank you, I am honored to inspire you...this is a MUCH sweeter and emotionally expressed poem than my "silly ditty"...but Passions is a special place where we can bond and share and be touched by each other...thank you for touching me today!!
take care,janet marie

ps...sorry it took me so long to see this...I've been having some of the same server problems Denise was where it takes a really long for each poem to load...if they load at all..but today i seem to be working ok..

 ...every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.
every poem and song...
every rhyme and verse...
your still here...like a beautiful curse.

Thanks so much Spyro, twin, child and Joy and everyone.  All of your comments mean a lot to me and I think you are all a very special and talented group.

Janet Marie, a special thanks to you and I certainly don't think of your poem as a "silly ditty".  I thought it was great.
